(ex: tweezers, scissors, etc.) so basically anything metal Tuberculocidal disinfectants - Correct Answer-proven to kill the bacteria that cause tuberculosis, a disease caused by

bacteria that are transmitted through coughing or sneezing. These bacteria are capable of forming spores, so they are difficult to kill. TB disinfectants are one of a kind hospital disinfectant.

Disinfection - Correct Answer-destroys most but not necessarily all harmful organisms on environmental surfaces. Disinfection is not effective against bacterial spores. Disinfectants must be used in all salons and must be bactericidal (capable of killing bacteria), virucidal (capable of destroying viruses) and fungicidal (capable of destroying fungi).

Bacteria - Correct Answer-single celled microorganisms that have both plant and animal characteristics. Looks like tiny bags under a microscope. They generally consist of an outer cell wall that contains liquid called protoplasm. Can exist anywhere in the skin, water, air, etc. ( basically everything)

Microorganisms - Correct Answer-are of submicroscopic size. Some are harmful while some are harmless Types of bacteria - Correct Answer-pathogenic and non pathogenic pathogenic - Correct Answer-harmful microorganisms that can cause ideas w or infection in humans when they invade the body Non pathogenic - Correct Answer-most bacteria are non pathogenic and perform useful functions. They are safe to come in contact with since they do not cause disease or harm. they can stimulate the immune system, break down food and protect against infections. Types of pathogens - Correct Answer-Cocci, staphylococci, streptococci, diplococci, bacilli, spirilla Cocci - Correct Answer-round shape bacteria that appear single or in groups. Rarely show active motion. Transmitted through air, dust or within the substance in which they settle

Staphylococci - Correct Answer-pus-forming bacteria that grow in clusters like bunches of grapes. They cause abscesses, pustules and boils. Some types may not cause infection in healthy humans.Staph bacteria can be picked up on doorknobs, countertops, and other surfaces Streptococci - Correct Answer-pus forming bacteria arranged in curved lines resembling a string of beads.
